Three tales of lost innocence, tragedy and suspense set during the
Second World War, by writer Garth Ennis and artists Russ Braun,
Peter Snejbjerg and Carlos Ezquerra. As the German army smashes
deep into Soviet Russia and the defenders of the Motherland retreat
in disarray, a new bomber squadron arrives at a Russian forward
airbase. Its crews will risk fiery death on lethal night missions
against the invader - but for these pilots, the consequences of
capture will be even worse. For the crews of the 599th Night Bomber
Regiment are women. In the deadly skies of the Eastern front, they
will become a legend- known, to friend and foe alike, as "The Night
Witches". 1942: in the tropical splendor of the South China Sea, as
war spreads across the far east, a young woman finds herself in
paradise - and then in hell. Nurse Carrie Sutton is caught up in
the Japanese invasion of Singapore, suffering horrors beyond her
worst imaginings. Now she attempts to start her life anew, buoyed
up by a growing friendship with a young pilot - and, incredibly, a
chance for revenge. But even victory can be a hollow prize, as
Carrie discovers to her cost in "Dear Billy". After D-Day came the
battle for Normandy, when untried Allied soldiers met the seasoned
veterans of the German Army. As Panzer units and SS troops turn the
French countryside into a killing ground, a lone British tank crew
struggles to rejoin their squadron. Lost behind enemy lines, their
only hope lies in their veteran commander, Corporal Stiles - but
can even this wily old trooper lead "The Tankies" to victory
against Germany's fearsome Tiger tank? This massive, 248-page trade
paperback collects the first three Battlefields story arcs. Nine
issues in all! Collects "The Night Witches", "Dear Billy", and
"Tankies", complete with bonus material such as sketches and
commentary from Ennis, along with a cover gallery by series cover
artists John Cassaday and Garry Leach!
